what kind of mineral water????
MY story... when we remodeled we moved across town (like 1/2 mile away) for 1.5 YEARS (yeah we are slow!) & my outside water I would notice a chlorine smell when I 1st turned on...
but the REAL issue happened when I got back "home"
after about 2 months (& noticing my son's dirty blonde hair was seeming sort of "rough/sticky/a tad brassy but dull" & accusing him of not rinsing the shampoo out enough) I noticed my hair was GREEN!!!!! yes f-ing GREEN....
like it was in High School when I was a swimmer... of course swimmers shampoo did not help as I was rinsing in the stuff... got a water filter from the health food store (the kind you put in between your shower nozzle & the wall)... it took about 3 months for ALL the green to go away... the filter was supposed to last 1 year... before replacement... but after about 9 months.. noticed the greenness coming back... did not delay this time.. so it went away in about 1 month....
what gets me is... what happened to the water?? when I lived there before= NO prob.... smelled chlorine at the interim house... but no greenness...
& plus BOTH houses are supposedly on the same water supply... so all I can figure is the NEW pipes????? (do not know what they are made from)
ANYHOW>>>> MORAL OF THE STORY>>> try a water filter for YOUR specific problem (when I inquired at the LOCAL health store... she said ... oh yeah... I get a lot of blondes in here!!!!).... another reason to shop local (political message!!)... so maybe your LOCAL store will know the problem???
btw... mine cost about $32.00.. the replacement filter (save the kind you need!!!!) was about $20....
